How should Christians respond to reports of sexual abuse, especially within the church? In this episode, Rachael Denhollander, an attorney, author, advocate, and educator known for her work on sexual abuse, shares her journey as the first victim to publicly accuse Larry Nassar, the former USA Gymnastics team doctor who abused hundreds of young athletes. Rachael prompts us to ask better questions about our theology in order to address sexual abuse more effectively and to better protect the vulnerable in our churches and communities. Resources:
